1.1 Metrological Legislation
Because of metrological legislation, some metrological parameter settings are
limited to be done by authorized personnel only. Do not attempt to change any
parameters under internal function number F60 ~ F99. Contact your dealer for
installation and technical assistance.

1.2 Seal & Serial Number

This instrument is legal for trade only when it is sealed (and/or stamped) and
bearing a serial number. Do not attempt to break the seal (or stamp) or serial
number affixed to this instrument. No warranty service will be provided if the
seal (or stamp) or data plate affixed to this instrument is damaged or removed.
Always contact your dealer for after sales service.

1.3 Warm Up Time

a. Allow warm up period of not less than 60 seconds before
calibration and usage. The higher the setup resolution of the
scale, the longer the warm up period is required. In most cases,
120 seconds is a safe warm up period for all applications. This
warm up period is needed to energy all components to reach a
stable status.
b. The internal count value is deemed stable when the internal AD
count varies less than 3 counts within 2 seconds.
c. To read the internal AD count value, enter internal function F1.
The internal AD count value of a not yet fully energized PCB will
go up continuously.

1.4 Placing the Weighing Platform

In order to obtain an accurate weighing result, the weighing platform must be
placed on a strong and level surface. Avoid using the platform and this
instrument and the weighing platform in any environment where excessive
wind flow, vibration and extreme temperature change exist.

1.5 Cautions
a. The instrument is not an explosion proof device.
b. The instrument is not a water proof device.
8
 c. Do not open the instrument, no user serviceable parts inside.
Always contact your dealer for service.
d. Do not place this instrument in where shock, excessive vibration
or extremes of temperature (before or after installation) exist.
